When you’re out trick or treating, there will be extra traffic in neighborhoods, so make sure to drive safely.
Bring a flashlight or wear reflective gear to make sure other people and cars can see you.
Make sure to park in a safe place and be patient when crossing streets.
Battalion Chief Kelly Burns said, “we want you to have a safe and happy Halloween and just adding a little extra patience, a little extra kindness sometimes if people are getting in your way. Just take a breath, have some fun and have a happy Halloween.”
Burns also said keeping open flames like jack o lanterns away from flammable objects is important.
He said plugging too many lights into the same outlet can also start fires.
